More Rumi


He that was born in the dark water of material wealth, how could he tell the freedom of open country from the dismal prison of the well? When you relinquish the ego for fear of God, the elixir of His fountain will arrive.

-Rumi, "Mathnawi"

Ego is such a hard thing to overcome and every one has an ego to varying degree's......including me.

Yes it does take alot, so that is why Malcolm X was a role model for me early on.

To have the humilty to change/accept things which he was against prior.
